Chick Lit (Read or Die AMV)

[fireicelightarrows]

I loves this amv. I'm saving up my paychecks for the collectors edition of the show :3

[Lilllllly]

I LOVE this song!!! can you tell me anything about the band?

[sarahtheboring]

@Lilllllly Sure, at least a bit. Moxy Fruvous were a Canadian folk/a capella group whose heyday was in the '90s; they broke up in 2000. This song is from their album Bargainville. I recommend it heartily. :)

[Lilllllly]

@sarahtheboring Canada has THE BEST bands! Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie, Arrogant Worms, and, of course, The Barenaked Ladies (Who says great music can't be funny?)! Thanks for bringing another one to my attention! :)

[TheDrunkWaitress]

This is perfect! love!

[pup4588]

I can't tell you how many times I've watched this--too many to count that's for sure! I love your work and I think it's brilliant and you're brilliant! I can't wait to see what comes next!

[mrwhitecloud2]

Best song for Read or Die. Ever.

This was brilliant.

[LonerGalore]

I never saw the anime, but I loved the movie. I can't find it anywhere though :(

[sarahtheboring]

@LonerGalore Yeah, it was a Geneon license, now kaput. However, now that you mention it, Aniplex America rereleased the whole thing on BluRay in January. So that's good.

[neoldd1]

Are you kidding?? How did I not find this video before? Brilliant work!

[Sheblet]

I freaking love this video. Also, I've watched it about a hundred times and I just realized that the "counselor's" book said "Yuri For Fun and Profit." ......

I LOL'd.

[gamergye9999]

ausome!!!!!! and funny XD

[jubjub2amv]

This is still one of my favorites of yours. Definitely in my faves folder.

[MsNicoleGoff]

This was one of the first AMV's I ever saw (albeit few years ago after you posted it)! And I love it and it got me hooked on AMV's in general. I love the clip syncing to the lyrics and beats....just great! XD

[meenkieblade]

:D Great vid and very well put together! Kudos!!

[HentaiSweetie]

I love it when songs are this fitting with the shows/movies/games/ used in amv's.

[darkseid13]

That was amusing.

[cortazuma]

amazing...perfect..epic... historical... running out the proper adjectives

[FlaDragon123]

I can't think of a better song for this series. I'm almost surprised that they didn't use this song for the opening of the series itself.

[animehunter23]

so fits the series XD

[Alteric1]

That was really nicely done and really funny.

[cuteycindyhoney]

[kerrianne42]

ROFLMAO, that was AWESOME!!! So well done!! I think I've found my new theme song! :)

[kerrianne42]

While I agree with the sentiment, I have to say any comment using the word "FUCK" seems to give a negative connotation. Just a thought....

[wtfraven]

Toronto sun ftw. :}

[Jananae]

It's ridiculous how well this song works :P

[Leylaashley]

But funny at the same time

[rolliroxmesox]

NICE!

[cuteycindyhoney]

That was wonderful! Yomiko is perfect for this song!

[thingthingdude]

[ranmaharu]

Hahaha. Great vid!

LOL.Lesbian shortage. LOL.

[Starphire7]

I love this anime and this is the best video I've seen with this anime XD

[neandertale]

"Yuri for fun and profit"... And then the happy smiles of Anita and her friend. My neighbors must think I'm mad, howling with laughter like that xD

[underthemoonbeam]

Congrats on winning.

You guys deserved it.

It's so funny. I was laughing through the entire thing. One of my favorite anime/manga and amv's. Favorited and 5/5 XD

[upgradem]

SUPERB JOB on this AMV!

keep it up!

[2Lacrymosa2]

UOOOOOOO!!!!It´s very funny!!Great job!!!

[ningensucker]

HAHAHAHA Fits so much with the anime!

10/10

[namelessuno]

I almost lauphed so hard at this. I was about to cry. lol Great job with the vid. Twenty out of five.

[AtashiWaAbunaiDa]

This is honestly. The best AMV I've seen in years. You did a FANTASTIC job. I can't express that enough. Awesome work!

[Olincaneechan]

LOL I loved this song, never heared it before, but it just fits so perfectly with the images! Great editing job! Congrats!!

[ningensucker]

Makes you wanna dance over the song ike a cowboy, ever though it's stupid XD

Yeeeehaaah!

[mrwhitecloud2]

Gosh. I was REALLY dubious when I began watching this. The music just isn't the kind I like, y'know? But after about 30 seconds, I was hooked. The way you put this all together is amazing! Perfect lip-synch, and the clips match the lyrics really nicely. All in all, this video is just plain priceless. Keep it up!

[anglesXx5665]

i agree 100% 5/5!!!!!

[redfreadom]

That awesome. The perfect song for a great and underplayed anime. Excelelnt timing and clip choice

[waterham]

OMFG! I'm seriousl laughing my butt off! FIVE OUTTA FIVE THAT WAS AMAZING! Fit the Anime too...XD

[itsu1]

Great AMV dude.

Perfect timing.

[cmcpheet]

"yuri for fun and profit" I lost it at that part, lol

[SangoUzumaki]

Oh yeah, half the clips are from the "Read or Die OVA" (3 eps) which I suggest you watch first and then the other clips are from "Read or Die the TV" (26 eps). All can be found on veoh (but not in English).

[sarahtheboring]

I've seen them. :) They're also on DVD, at least in the States. I think they've both played on cable as well (G4?), though that was a while back.

[mrwilson35]

awesome

[gangstah10]

HAHAHA!!!! as much as I am an R.O.D fan I loved it!!!!!! by the way watch my R.O.D amv's and my other vid's!!! and also watch my youtube buddy's vid's Penguidaeler's!!

[shanejayell]

*giggles*

DAMN was that cute!

[Reten]

Haha, that was awesome.

[pixiepixiegirl]

Dude, I LOVE this song! Congrats on winning. Wish I'd been at TsubasaCon's AMV contest.

I've never seen RoD, but a couple friends insist I look like Yomiko xD.

[drakovolf]

MOXY FRUVOUS!!!! ^_^ This is so cool!

[Yoodichan]

I've never heard of R.O.D. before, but even from these few clips without context I love it! XD Will be on the lookout for it.

[brokensleeper]

"hong Kong faces lesbian shortage" love it

[FinalSpartan]

Wow, great AMV, I gotta hand it to ya! As a big R.O.D the TV fan this has gotta be one of my favorite AMVs now.

[shriana]

This... this made me cry laughing.

It's so PERFECT for Read or Die.

[burkeonthesly]

The newspaper and the pamphlet? Pure comedy gold.

[ChibiPenguinChan]

took me long enough to find it... I saw this at a convention and couldn't remember anything but the anime name.

Great job, it was well worth the search!

[sarahtheboring]

What convention was this? We never entered this video in any AMV contests yet.

[ChibiPenguinChan]

Kumoricon

[sarahtheboring]

(sorry for the delay, I missed this) Thanks. That is weird, I wonder who entered it. X_x Anyway.

[Scintilla]

Don't worry; I found the post on the Kumoricon forum where they give some statistics on all the videos that were entered, and ROD isn't on the list of animé used.

Maybe the staff just played it during the Iron Chef or something like that.

[sarahtheboring]

Yeah, I emailed the organizer and he explained (a little attitude-y, but that's okay) that they showed it during a "here's random stuff from the internet that I liked" block.

...

If AMV editors knew that people did this, there'd be hell to pay. Sigh. But hey, it's a happy ending.

[NiGHTSChao689]

;_; I love ROD

[blacksheepwall79]

Yomiko and Michelle, gotta love em. Can't decide which I love better.

[pup4588]

WoW, this is BRILLIANT!!!

Everything fits perfectly: the song, the anime, the timing! This is a true gem!

[confusedlook]

Haha, this is brilliant! Good job!!

[MandyPandaa]

This is a really great AMV! ^^ I've been checking out all of yours - you have amazing synching skills! 5 stars~

[PhilosopherSocrates]

ROTFL I love this!!! This is perfect!

[LindenRyuujin]

Wow, this is a great AMV ^^ I love the whole thing; it just fits both the song and ROD so well. Great job!

[Reten]

OMG! It's linden! And I agree, well done.
